Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a trunnion mount for mounting an engine, in particular a combustion engine, to a chassis, comprising a support element rigidly connected and/or connectable to the engine having a ring portion with an outer bearing surface, which may be arranged concentrically around the crankshaft; a female support having an inner bearing surface for surrounding the bearing surface of the support element, the female support forming the link between the chassis and the engine; and a rubber bearing arranged between the inner bearing surface of the female support and the outer bearing surface of the support element. In one or more examples, the trunnion mount includes a rubber bearing that is directly vulcanized on at least one of the bearing surfaces and/or wherein the ring portion is formed as a separate element from a mounting portion of the support element and connectable thereto via axial screws.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vibration monitoring device and methods for using the same. Specifically, the invention relates to a vibration monitoring device which may be utilized throughout a delayed coker unit operation to ascertain whether the cutting tool is boring, cutting or ramping mode.

Abstract: A device for controlling an actuator includes a controller mounted within a housing having an outer surface. The controller is adapted for controlling outputs connected to the actuator for controlling an operation of the actuator. A data input interface receives data from the actuator and/or from other equipment being acted on by the actuator. A memory stores expected parameters of the actuator. An operator interface provided on the housing's outer surface accepts operator commands and/or settings for input to the controller. A display and/or indicator on the housing's outer surface displays an output of the controller. The controller compares the data, and/or derived parameters of the data, with the expected parameters, to monitor a health and status of one or both of the actuator and the other equipment. The controller indicates the health and the status to the operator utilizing the display and/or indicator.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for monitoring the status of a cutting tool during delayed decoker unit operation, and systems for remotely monitoring the level of coke or foam in a drum during the coking process. One or more sensors or accelerometers is coupled to a location in a delayed coking unit operation to read vibrations emanating from the component that the respective accelerometers are located on. Vibrational data is transmitted to a computer system that manipulates the data to provide useful information that an operator of a delayed coking unit operation may view.

Abstract: A deterministic controller for an actuator includes, for example, adaptation for installation in an explosion-proof housing and a primary controller sealed within the housing for controlling outputs. A backup controller is optionally provided for alternatively controlling the outputs. An operator interface is provided on the housing for accepting operator inputs for providing to the controller. A display is provided on the housing for displaying an output of the controller. The controller includes means for monitoring for a failure of the primary controller if the optional backup controller is installed, and the controller is adapted for switching from the primary controller to the backup controller upon detecting the failure of the primary controller. The outputs can be user configured to desired output ranges from the operator interface without opening the housing.

Abstract: Temperature controller apparatus for generating a control signal for supply to a control device which controls the temperature inside a chamber. The apparatus includes a plurality of input devices each receiving an indication of the temperature at a respective location in the chamber. Each of the received temperature indications is processed so as to form the control signal. In the event that any of the input devices fails to receive the respective temperature indication, output signals from such input devices are not utilized in forming the control signal. If all of the input devices fail to receive the respective temperature indications, the control signal is obtained from either previous control signals or previously stored control data.
